MEGA Bloks Skylanders Giants – Drobot Battle Portal

Drobot on his MEGA Blocks Battle Portal - Skylanders Giants

I was sent the MEGA Bloks Skylanders Giants Drobot Battle Portal to play with and review. Opinions are, as always, 100% my own.

I like dragons and am excited at how many dragons are part of the Skylanders Universe. I also like robots and so a robotic dragon was something I knew I would really love. Drobot is a fantastic figure in the game and also as part of this battle portal set.

The set is a series 2 battle portal and the base it has is translucent orange. When the battle portal hits something it will flash orange. The set also comes with a sheep, an hourglass blok, a key blok and an elemental symbol blok.

Drobot is a fantastic figure with great detail. He’s got a movable head, tail and legs along with those golden gilded mechanical wings. The detail on figure is perfect down to Drobots sharp pointy teeth. I would have liked to have seen some gears like Drobot has in the video games.

I admit, I didn’t know very much about this toy/app and was interested in hearing more about it and getting a hands on look. Once I opened the packages and started playing, I got it, it made sense to me. I play a couple of games where physical characters are imported into the game for play and this is very similar in this vein except you can actually play with the telepods figures because there is no technology inside them that can get broken. In fact you are encouraged to launch the figures at other plastic pieces and figures in order to knock them over. Continue reading Review: Angry Birds Star Wars Telepods →
